Summary

To evaluate whether percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with contemporary drug-eluting stents (DES) combined with guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT), compared to GDMT alone, reduces the time to first occurrence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) through 12 months in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy and a left-ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≤40%. MACE is a composite of cardiovascular \[CV\] death, spontaneous myocardial infarction (MI), any unplanned revascularization, heart failure (HF)-related rehospitalization, heart transplantation, requirement of device implantation (e.g., valvular treatment, pacemaker, or left ventricular assist device \[LVAD\]), or requirement of intravenous medications due to worsening heart failure in outpatients.

Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Percutaneous coronary intervention

PCI will be performed according to standard techniques. Use of a contemporary, FDA/CE-approved drug-eluting stent is mandatory.

DRUG

Guideline-directed medical therapy

GDMT optimization follows a structured titration algorithm: Week 0: introducing angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEi)/ angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB) or angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitors (ARNI) and beta-blockers. Week 1: adding mineralocorticoid receptor antagonist (MRA) and sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i). Adjust every 2-4 weeks to reach target or tolerable dose unless symptomatic hypotension (systolic blood pressure \[SBP\] \< 90 mmHg) or estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) drop \> 30 % or serum potassium \>5.2 mmol/L.
